# Database Form Events

The Events tab page, allows you to assign a macro to certain events which occur in a database form.

Para acceder a esta orden…

Open context menu of a selected form element - choose Form Properties - Events tab.

Open Form Design toolbar, click Form Properties icon - Events tab.

Para enlazar un evento con una macro, primero grabe una macro que contenga todas las órdenes que deban ejecutarse cuando se produzca el evento. Luego, asigne esta macro al evento respectivo: para ello, pulse en el botón … ubicado junto al evento. Se abrirá la ventana Asignar macro, que le permitirá seleccionar la macro.

Se pueden configurar las acciones siguientes de manera individual, es decir, puede usar sus propios cuadros de diálogo para representar una acción:

1. Mostrar un mensaje de error,

2. Confirmar un proceso de eliminación (de registros de datos),

3. Consultar parámetros,

4. así como comprobar las entradas al guardar un registro.

Por ejemplo, es posible crear una solicitud de «confirmación de eliminación» como «¿Realmente quiere eliminar el cliente xyz?» al suprimir un registro de datos.

The events that are shown in the Events dialog cannot be edited directly. You can remove an event from the list by pressing the Del key.

A continuación se enumeran y describen todos los eventos de formulario que pueden enlazarse con una macro:

## Al recargar

El evento Al recargar acaece inmediatamente después de que se ha vuelto a cargar el formulario. El contenido de los datos ya se ha actualizado.

The Before update event occurs before the control content changed by the user is written into the data source. The linked macro can, for example, prevent this action by returning FALSE.

## Después de actualizar

The After update event occurs after the control content changed by the user has been written into the data source.

## Antes de restablecer

The Prior to reset event occurs before a form is reset. Returning True approves the reset, returning False cancels the operation.
